So I got my drivers license
« on: September 27, 2016, 06:51:07 PM »
After living in israel 10 years then uber / lyft everywhere.. I did what grownups do.. ironic, used to "borrrow" my mothers van at 13-14 (but miami in the summer is dead)

Can any one point me on some quick tips for car rentals ? like who status matches what, what points to earn from who?

If your really helpful, Ive got a bottle of 1999 leoville i'll share, ideally not while driving

I would start with Priceline.com and rent from the cheapest option from the more known company's  like Hertz, Avis, Enterprise and see which one works the best for you

All of the above have unique perks

Good luck

Turn national executive into Hertz and sixt status.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

You can match it to hertz five star, though I don't think it's worth much.

IME getting to know an agent behind the counter is a lot better then any status you can have..

Definitely, although the combination of a friendly agent and status (which gives them extra liberty) is great.
